Keiko Just a comment on the misleading nature of triby's past earnings picture. The published earnings data shows 12/31/96 data such as quicken.excite.com which shows -.01 per share and a misleading statement of 1998 eps of .07. Another page shows similar misleading info such as www1.wsrn.com This points up why I wish triby either set up an effective home page or else put their PR people to work in getting out the current earnings picture. No mention is made of the predicted 1998 pe's of .15. The secrecy certainly favors us who have been willing to work hard to locate the scarce news and buy in before the news gets out. But otherwise, research is hard to come by and, in a vacuum, we can't expect investors to guess triby's value.

Some open questions to veteran TRIBY followers..... I am just beginning to research TRIBY and was wondering if some of you veterans might be able to answer a couple of questions. 1) Does the company report GAPP compliant quarterly financial statements anywhere? The stuff on their web page is ancient 1996 data in a different format, and I did not see anything in EDGAR. 2) The cash position seems to be dwindling, is there any concern about the need for more financing in the next quarter or two??? I.E. possible secondary offering? 3) Is the $0.06 per share 4th quarter earnings estimate on First Call for real? Where is it supposed to come from, increased sales or increased margins? I see why you folks are optimistic, the future looks bright. I just need a little more info to help focus my crystal ball. Thanks, Yo Yo
